Hurst shifter with stock linkage

What about the shifter in post #1? That's the one I'm looking at buying. Can I bring my shifter when I look at this one and compare them in person? He said it says hurst pending so he thinks it's an original hurst shifter

The shifter in post #1 is a Hurst but I don't know what vintage. Hopefully someone will post about rod compatibility, because I just don't know.
